<title>Transparency</title>

<body>
<p>Significant aspects of the process must be visible to those responsible for the outcome. Transparency requires those aspects be defined by a common standard so observers share a common understanding of what is being seen.</p>
<p>For example:
<ul>
<li>A common language referring to the process must be shared by all participants; and,</li>
<li>A common definition of "Done" must be shared by those performing the work and those accepting the work product.</li>
</ul>
